WORKPLACE ROMANCES ARE LIKELY LOVE CONNECTIONS



NEW YORK (Wireless Flash) – You may think office romances are a bad idea, but one man claims the workplace can be the right place to meet a mate. According to “head hunting” expert Stephen Viscusi, sleeping with an co-worker is a great way to find a mate. Although common sense dictates not to mix business and pleasure, Viscusi says you’re more likely to have things in common with a fellow employee than someone you meet elsewhere. He claims people who work together share the same education and class backgrounds, which can make better mates. It looks like many employees are already taking his advice to heart: He estimates that 70 percent of men and 60 percent of women have already had at least one office romance. Viscusi is the author of the new office etiquette book On the Job (Three Rivers Press).
